The order along a smooth centre and the exceptional divisor #
[Kol07, Definition 47], last paragraph: "the number ord_Z I equals the multiplicity of π^* I
along the exceptional divisor of the blow-up"; [Kol07, Definition 60] assumes m ≤ ord_Z I;
[Hau14, Definition 6.8]: for c at most the order d of I along the centre, "I^* has order
≥ c along E".
For a smooth irreducible centre Z with generic point η and m ≤ ord_Z I = ord_η I, every
section of I lies in Z^m near Z, I ≤ Z ^ m as ideal sheaves (le_pow_of_le_ord), and hence
F^m ∣ I^* on the blow-up (exceptionalDivisor_pow_dvd_comap_of_le_ord). Kollár's argument reads
I_η ⊆ 𝔪_η^m = (x₁, …, x_r)^m 𝒪_{X,η} at the generic point and propagates to the points of Z;
here the propagation is Pᵐ R_P ∩ R = Pᵐ (the symbolic power equals the ordinary power for a
prime P = Z_z generated by part of a regular system of parameters,
le_ordAlong_chartCenter_iff of Hironaka/Algebra/Local/SymbolicPower.lean) applied at every point
z of Z, through the identification of 𝒪_{X,η} with the localization of 𝒪_{X,z} at Z_z
(ordAlong_stalkIdeal_eq_ord_stalkIdeal: on an affine open U ∋ z both stalks are localizations
of Γ(U), Mathlib's IsAffineOpen.isLocalization_stalk, and Z_z ∩ Γ(U) = Z(U) is the prime of
η, Z being integral). Integrality of the centre: Z is irreducible (the generic point) and
its stalks are regular (smooth over k), so reduced (isIntegral_subscheme_of_smooth, via
isIntegral_subscheme_of_isRegularLocalRing_stalk of
Hironaka/Scheme/BlowUp/Transform/WeakTransform.lean).

Integrality of an irreducible smooth center #
The subscheme of an ideal sheaf whose support has a generic point is irreducible.
A centre smooth over k with a generic point is integral.
The order along the center at a point equals the order at the generic point #
For an integral center, the stalk of its ideal sheaf at a point of the center is prime.
The propagation from the generic point: at a point z of an integral centre Z with generic
point η, the order of I_z along the prime Z_z — the order in the localization
(𝒪_{X,z})_{Z_z} = 𝒪_{X,η} — is ord_η I.
le_ordAlong_chartCenter_iff of Hironaka/Algebra/Local/SymbolicPower.lean transported along
an identification of the prime with a chartCenter: m ≤ ord_P I gives I ≤ P^m.
The order along the centre bounds the exceptional multiplicity from below #
If m ≤ ord_Z I then I ≤ Z^m (the hypothesis of [Kol07, Definition 60]; the argument at
every point of Z is the library's own).
[Kol07, Definition 47]; [Hau14, Definition 6.8]: if m ≤ ord_Z I then F^m divides the
total transform I^* — F = Z·𝒪_B being invertible, I^* ≤ F^m suffices.
